Dak could have taken less. Your claim about getting all you can is a cop out.
You know how much Dak had already made by the time of this contract?
OVER 100 MILLION.
So your claim he SHOULD go for every dollar is GARBAGE.
So YES he was greedy.
HE had Jethro over a barrel because he is Jethro.
HE could have said I will take a lot less if you agree IN WRITING to use ALL Of that to get FAs to make this team better
There is no reason that could not have been done.
But Dak wanted the money more than he wanted to win a SB
Jerry doesn't take less money and completely cheeped out this offseason after 3 consecutive 12 win seasons, so why should the players take less?

The Cowboys could have freed up over $60 million this offseason and signed some of the guys they lost along with Henry, etc and made a run but he chose to dump salaries and divert $23 million in CAP to next season. They can free up over $100 million this coming offseason but we all know they won't so again I ask why would any player take less money for an owner that isn't fully committed to spending it to build a winner?

I don't believe it's only incompetence. You cant possibly see all the teams around you, and in your own division continue to reload each year and not question why you can't.

I think they've discovered they could remain competitive and highly profitable without spending the extra money.

It sounds terrible but when Jerry talks about "dead coaching money" it demonstrates how he's looking at the bottom line.
they are classic Scrooges !!!!!!!!!!!!!! it is a sickness, and they are really sick !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jerry is even tight with his kids lol, none of them are worth 2 mil , just below 1mil or little above.
Jerry still controls all the billions.

I thought of this a few years ago, and it would have to be clearly in the contract, but even better the player
giving up the $ should do the spending himself !!
you cant trust the 2 jones boys bozo's lol and on other teams same thing.

If dak gave up the $ he should pick a FA WR, or TE or RB, or OL, his choice.


And it could still be done !!!!!!!!!!! just tell jerry I want this guy and pay him with my money, take it out of what I get this year. etc.
Dak isnt really concerned with winning in playoffs, or going to sb, he is like jerry, talk about it but do nothing to make it happen.

I think it may be too late though because dak looked bad this year, overweight, out of shape, not sharp, and now with this injury,
he may come back even worse.
the last 2 years if he had done this and added a good WR, who knows what it would have led to.
But now dak is messed up, and it is not the caliber of team they had when going 12-5.

They both our delusional!
Who the hell In their right mind would make Dak the highest paid player in NFL history?

I'm just happy that fans, local media, and national media are no longer buying what Barnum and Bailey have been selling for the longest.

Jerry somehow has the delusion he played an integral part in the team’s Super Bowl runs in the 90’s; his ego, arrogance and narcissism has single-handedly kept the Cowboys mired in mediocrity for almost 30 years. His propensity to be the face of the Cowboys, combined with his need to undermine his coaches will ensure Dallas’ continued mediocrity while other teams in the NFC continue to ascend them.
Jimmy was a gift and curse to Jerry: no matter how much the mend the past ? Jerry will forever resent Jimmy because he put Jerry in his place and refuses to give to give him credit for the success. If those early 90’s cowboys.

This front office is a joke. Everyone is well aware that their words mean absolutely nothing. No need to analyze anything they have to say, it’s all garbage.

It’s why I’m not a fan anymore.

I still follow the team, and enjoy talking with others on this board, but I’ve come to the opinion that the Jones family views success on the field as secondary. A distant secondary, too.

It’s possible that they’re incompetent, but the actions show that they just aren’t even really trying.

So why should I care?

We have a talent evaluation problem that’s 3 fold. We are unable to evaluate effectively who should be signed for big contracts and who aren’t worth the cap space. We reach in the draft when we should be BPAing the whole way through and we give away draft picks when we get extra comp picks.

i just watched a short video from Jeff Cavanaugh..you may have to take back to beginning of video

Jeff.who breaks down why the Eagles keep reloading evey year and we dont....name of

video catching Stephen Jones Lying....they really think us fans are stupid....please watch and give any feedback good or bad....you are all entitled to your

opinion...but to be honest it chaps my behind....Eagles owner truly wants to not only be contender but win it all...Jerry it seemed use to be like that a bit more?

but has relagated all to Cap Boy

The fans are stupid. The overwhelming majority are but I am glad many are starting to see through the BS.
